Smiling not Crying

"Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened." 

--Dr Seuss 

As I make my way through my first week post-quitting my job I am trying to live this quote. 

I smile as I remember the good times with my co-workers, the laughs, the goof-ups, the pranks and the conversations we had when things were slow and we were just shooting the shit. 

I smile as I remember the special moments with the members who I always looked forward to seeing, the ones who touched my heart in one way or another. I think of them carrying on without me and my heart aches a little.

I smile as I sit on the couch - my new home for my "work" in the world - typing away on my keyboard, checking email and Twitter, snuggling up with my boys and reading a good book, knowing I am where I need to be right now. 

What are you smiling about this week?
